LANDING WITHOUT ELEVATOR CONTROL

Using POWER lever and ELEVATOR TRIM control, trim for
approximately 500 FPM descent with WING FLAPS set to TO/APR and
airspeed at 85 KIAS. Then control the glide angle by adjusting the
POWER lever. If required, make small trim changes to maintain
approximately 85 KIAS as power is adjusted during the approach.
The landing flare can be accomplished by a gentle power reduction
accompanied by nose up trim. At forward C.G. loadings, it may be
necessary to make a small power increase in the final flare stage to
bring the nose up and prevent touchdown on the nosewheel first. After
touchdown, set the POWER lever to IDLE.

SMOKE AND FIRE

In the event a fire is encountered, the following information will be
helpful in dealing with the emergency as quickly and safely as possible.
The Preflight Checklist, located in Section 4 of this POH, is provided to
aid the pilot in detecting conditions which could contribute to an
airplane fire. As a fire requires a combustible material, oxygen and a
source of ignition, close preflight inspection should be given to the
engine compartment and the underside of the wing and fuselage.
Leaks in the fuel or oil systems can lead to a ground or in-flight fire.
Flight should not be attempted with known fuel or
oil leaks. The presence of fuel or unusual oil stains
can be an indication of system leaks and should be
corrected prior to flight.
